“Alicia (and Brendan) were excellent guides. We visited/experienced: Palacio de Bellas Artes, Plaza de la Constitución (Zocalo), Benito Juárez Hemicycle Monument, Piñatas during Posadas (12-24 December). Our walking tour traced Mexico’s history from the Aztec Templo Mayor via 300 years of Spanish colonialism (1521-1820) to the present. I highly recommend this informative tour. We staid in Hilton Reforma and the tour begins literally there and is an easy walk. You could certainly see the sites for yourself from the outside but you’d miss out in all the very detailed explanations provided by Alicia. Communication prior to the trip was also prompt. We ended up chatting after the tour over coffee...”

“This is an amazing way to start your Mexico City experience. I wish I had done it on day one. This covers all the downtown spots, some of which would be hard to know/find by ourselves. Rodrigo is amazing! He is very patient, knowledgeable and amicable. He is the one who made our tour enjoyable. It being a small group, the overall experience was much more personalised. When we asked about a room or something not part of the tour, Rodrigo didn’t hesitate to show us. I ended up hanging out with my small group well beyond the tour and made some awesome friends. Highly recommend this tour for first…”

“Let me preface by saying that we have taken many food tours in the past. We booked this because it had excellent reviews My husband and I are both foodies and we were excited for the tour as we thought we would get a great experience. Our tour was supposed to start at 11:30 AM and we got a text from the organizer that it would be at 12. We agreed to this. The guide showed up much later than 12 as he had a tour prior. The guide was very nice, but he was not food tour guide as was evident from the start. He was a historical tour…”
